Chapter 623 – A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

Posted on March 12, 2025 by admin

Filed to story: A Sacrificial Lambs Unexpected Marriage

With one hand in his trousers pocket, he was smoking a cigarette between his slender fingers.

All of a sudden, their eyes met.

Deacon raised his legs and walked over, as he stopped in front of her.

Oriana curled her slender fingers beside her, “Mr. Armstead, it’s been a while.”

She greeted him dryly.

Deacon took a cigarette, and then drew a dating are on his thin lips. He replied, “Yes, it has.”

Oriana did not know what to say.

At this moment, Deacon slowly spat out a puff of smoke onto her face.

Although she held her breathe, the strong smell of tobacco caused Oriana’s palm-sized face to quickly burn.

Did he do it on purpose?

Oriana bit her red lips with her teeth, “I’ll go ahead.”

She muttered,

Deacon looked at her. As soon as she bit her lower lip, she lost her delicate appearance. His eyes darkened, and then he nodded, “Okay,”

Oriana turned around and left.

She was gone.

She didn’t know where to go either.

Oriana’s pale eyes slowly turned red. She suddenly thought of her birthday.

Oriana remembered that when she was nineteen years old, she came from the countryside to Los Angeles. She was still beautiful and young. That year, she met Deacon.

Time indeed moved fast.

At this moment, she heard steady footsteps behind her, and he followed.

Deacon followed her all the way.

When she walked away, he was right behind her.

It was just that she lowered her head all the way, and was lost in thought, hence she couldn’t sense him behind her.

He stopped behind her. The cigarette on his fingertips had already burned out. He stubbed out the cigarette butt in the trash can.

Now, Oriana was in front and he was behind.

He put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked at her. Today, she was wearing a nude pink dress. Her long pure black hair was casually resting on her shoulders. There was a dash of tenderness intertwined in her innocence.

In the past few years, time had slowly precipitated her arrogance and made her even more attractive.

Oriana knew that he was looking at her.

The two of them did not say a word, but their empty heart slowly filled up and warmed.

After leaving the villa, Oriana stood on the street and flagged down a taxi.

The taxi stopped. She reached out to open the rear door, but a large, well-defined palm reached over and opened the rear door before her.

She sat in, and then, the seat beside her sank as he also sat in.

The driver in front asked, “Mister, where are you going?”

She did not speak.

His low magnetic voice said, “Just drive around.”

“Alright.”

The taxi started to move, and the cool night breeze blew in, blowing Oriana’s long hair.

Deacon looked sideways and looked at the bright neon lights of the city outside the window. For so many years, he had only traveled in a limited edition luxurious car. It was the first time the two of them had taken a taxi.

Deacon’s cheek felt itchy. The cool breeze was blowing through her hair. A few strands of her hair were wrapped around his face.

“Sit tight.”

The driver alerted, as he turned the steering wheel. The taxi quickly turned into a corner.

Oriana could not sit still. Because of her inertia, she fell to the man beside her.

At this moment, a strong arm reached out and hugged her waist, naturally pulling her into his embrace:

She raised her bright and clear eyes to look at him. His big palm held her soft cheek and kissed her.

His mouth and senses were instantly filled with the smell of her body.

His blushing lips were deeply pouted. He slowly but firmly pried her teeth open and kissed her tenderly.

She could feel his thoughts like a flood.

Oriana stretched out her two small hands and wrapped her arms around his sturdy waist.

This night, on her twenty-fourth birthday, in a taxi, she cuddled in his warm and wide embrace and kissed him wantonly.

The taxi stopped and Oriana opened the rear door. “Mr. Armstead, don’t step out. I want to watch you go.”

Deacon stretched out his palm and grabbed her face. He said softly, “Okay.”

Oriana stood outside and waved at him.

Deacon looked at the driver and said, “Drive.”

“Yes, sir.”

The driver stepped on the accelerator and the taxi sped away.

The car was far away, and

Deacon looked through the rearview mirror. She was still standing there, watching him.

Her slender figure gradually drifted away, and disappeared from his sight.

He used all his strength to restrain himself from looking back,

Actually, he really wanted to tell her to come with him.

He wanted to tell her to forget about Visionary and Greenland. He also wanted telling her that they could go to a place where there was no disturbance. He could protect her and give her his love. And they will never be separated again.

However, in the end, he did not say anything

Because he couldn’t.

He knew that she had too many responsibilities and missions, and he also knew what she wanted to do it. He could only let her go and let her do what she should do.

At this moment, Deacon’s phone suddenly rang out. It was Marvin.

Looking at the word, “Marvin’, on his screen, Deacon frowned slightly.

Deacon pressed the button to answer the call, “Hello, Marvin, thank you for today.”

At this moment, Marvin was standing by the window. He held his phone in one hand. His bright black eyes stayed on the lawn through the window.

He was there to look after others, but little did he know that he was also the most beautiful scenery in the eyes of others.

Marvin pursed his lips.

In fact, Marvin really inherited Annabelle’s personality.

He and Deacon only maintained basic courtesy. Today, because Oriana’s birthday wish was Deacon, he brought Deacon to Oriana.

The birthday present he gave her was her birthday wish.

No matter what her birthday wish was, he was ready to help her achieve it.

“Marvin, mum and dad left in a hurry. You are my younger brother, and the eldest brother is like a father. Whether you believe it or not, I am responsible for you. I can leave everything I have to you but Oriana, she’s my life.”

Deacon muttered calmly.

Deacon said that Oriana was his life.

Marvin grabbed the phone, his handsome face did not waver. He only slightly h ooked his thin lips, “Yes, I know.”

“Marvin, leave Greenland as soon as possible. Don’t get involved in this whirlpool. This place is not suitable for you.”

However, it was too late.

“Bro, actually, whether Oriana is your life or not has nothing to do with me. As long as she loves me, I will do my best to win her, but bro, you are also her life, so how can I take her away from you?”

he asked.
